Dog Stuck On Cliff Rescued By Sheriff's Deputy

[Supply Side Jesus]

A springer spaniel stuck overnight on a cliff ledge in Lake Pueblo State Park is OK after a sheriff's deputy rappelled down a canyon to retrieve him. The dog named "Doc" went over an 80-foot cliff Thursday morning while training to become a hunting dog.

3. Dog rescued, cop done good, AND a journalist spelled "rappelled" correctly

This is win all the way 'round... :)

4. After bears and mountain lions, this is my biggest nightmare.

Plastic bags scare the shit out of my dog, but she is fearless (or clueless) of heights.:rofl:

I'm glad Doc is OK!

5. Wonderful!!

Love these stories. Makes such a refreshing difference from the usual, you know.

Folks in the Lounge, I've found, have a real appreciation for the four-legged critters. And their rescuers. Gotta keep perspective, after all.

Thanks for posting!
